Start by washing and peeling the cucumbers. Cut them into chunks for easier blending.
In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped cucumbers, fresh mint leaves, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, and water.
Add the salt, black pepper, and minced garlic to the blender.
Blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure everything is blended evenly.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Once blended to your satisfaction, transfer the soup to a large bowl or pitcher and cover it with plastic wrap.
Refrigerate the soup for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and for the soup to chill thoroughly.
Stir the soup well before serving. Serve it cold, garnished with a few extra mint leaves or a slice of cucumber if desired.
